    I'm glad I had a code for the free chocolates or I would have been very disappointed. I got a small box spring chocolates, a chocolate bunny, a moments egg and a classic egg (completely smashed). I could have bought all the Easter eggs cheaper in the supermarket but the continental choclates made it a worthwhile experience.

    Totally agree LL, although none of the items were broken, if it weren't for the free chocolates, this 'hamper would have been very poor value. I won't be using this again.

    I received the same. I rang them because eggs were broken and they weren't sending out what they were advertising, they are sending me another bundle out free of charge :j

    The free hamper was great, it had a Moments egg, a Continental egg, a Large chocolate egg, a Bunny and a very large box of continental chocolates. So much better than the original which I offered to return but was told to munch my way through it lol:j. Goodbye diet :eek:
